Lyrics

1. THREE BRIDGES

Out from the cold fear released its hold
And in the distance a bridge appears,
In the thaw a raging river revealed.

Here flows my blood, this is my home,
Above the sky shimmers in gold.

In the cracks of my own image
Is where I see the light,
Three bridges to cross before
We can reunite.

Through streets overseen by trees
And through a city full of memories.
My breath is heavy and air rushes in,
All that is hidden is under my skin.

Here flows my blood, this is my home!

In the cracks of my own image
Is where I see the light,
Three bridges to cross before
We can reunite.

Your voice is holy I bow!


2. WHAT I LEAVE BEHIND

Sickness spreads throughout us farther,
deeper, like fire it hides far below.
A wild beast awakens to darken the sun,
Its eyes rule the fear.

Fear that follows you like a shadow,
A shadow that darkens the sun.

Falling from the sky, buried underground,
An undefined form of our own demise.
Sickness spreads throughout us farther,
Deeper, like fire it hides far below.

Farther, deeper, farther, deeper!
Falling from the sky, buried underground,
An undefined form of our own demise.

Oh father,
Is this your god’s will?
Oh mother,
You let the black sun rise.

Oh son,
This is the gift i offer.
Oh daughter,
I see embers in your eyes.


3. INSIDE OF A DREAM

The wind blows, so hard I brace
And so icy cold I sense a Metallic taste.
I stumble down some steps suddenly so old
Into a lonely place Beyond all silver and gold.

And I need you more than I can
Say when I’m away, away like this.
Trucks are rolling, dogs are howling,
It's this dream, it's this dream I miss.

Blue as the sea and the veil so torn,
One story ends another is born.
One story ends another is born,
Blue as the sea and the veil so torn.

Yeah it is a cold cold crime, my dear,
There is no escape, no escape from here.
I see you remember me as the one
Who lives inside a dream.

As the one who lives inside a dream!


4. I REMEMBER

With your smile you bent light,
Built a wall you hid behind.
Branches woven to cover
The other side.

The silence was deceiving,
It was the eye of the storm.

Rolling thunder ripped your heart out
And the lighting struck in another form,
It kept striking until you fell down the gorge.

You kept falling as the bolt
Dug deeper into your sores!

Days turned to nights turned to years,
From the echoes there is no escape.
Isolation with no end, it was you
But you altered shape.

Now you have taken your place,
You are one of the eternals.
You left us with a smile when you
Rolled out in the night.

Now you have taken your place,
You are one of the eternals.
You left us with a smile when you
Rolled out in the night.

Staring into the dark,
In the dark it all amplifies.
One star shines brighter,
It will never die.


5. WAVE AFTER WAVE

From the trees · from the deep · i am rising.
Moving with the pace of your dreams
I am lingering
Where our voices join the choir · where our numb bodies sleep in a place where moments drift · silence hits in wave after wave
Under careful watch from the stars · under a shelter of blue and green whispers suppressed by snow
Silence hits in wave after wave
With the crows · with black wings · i am flying.
Running with the pack of my own will
I am closing in
I hear the call · i see you fly · a motion like twin rocks
If you turn the moon will shift its course · if you listen the rain will sing your song
Now that we have found our path let it guide you
Let it carry you
